Yes. The device is a Digitech Talker. It's a foot pedal type of  
thing. Designed for guitarists. The producer's article some years ago  
in Sound On Sound mentioned it. There was no mention of pitch  
correction plugins.

While many maintain that it really requires an Autotune like plugin  
to make that sound, I don't agree. I actually own the Talker and have  
done vocal processing just like the Cher track with only a vocoder.  
The trick to getting it seamless is in how you edit the midi data  
triggering the synth used as modulator and how you set up the synth  
patch. I also love and use the EVOC20. It has loads more useful  
features and is more convenient than the talker because Logic  
compensates for the latency automatically. The Talker has a fair bit  
of latency.

Kind regards
